It's literally a bot that chats. What is there more to it?

I mean, I just asked to perform a set of actions via plain english language, and via a plugin it performed actions... Maybe you're a few days behind the times?

  I think that's called programming, and has been a thing for a long time now. You don't control computers by inputting numbers anymore. What exactly are these "actions" you speak of, and did ChatGPT "perform" them without errors?

I am literally a series of chemical reactions; and yet, that kind of description is generally regarded as overly reductionist. To the best of my knowledge, before the transformer model, the state of the art for natural language processing was looking out for pre-programmed keywords for actions, and simply summing the total of "good minus bad" for sentiment analysis. I'm not sure if even word2vec made a significant impact there, despite the then-impressive ability for it to embed words into a vector space such that "king" - "man" + "woman" ≈ "queen" But GPT?

  You are not literally a series of chemical reactions. There is no branch of science that claims so. In fact, we're very aware of our inability to define ourselves, particularly the phenomenon of consciousness. Am I supposed to be impressed by a bunch of gibberish in languages I don't speak, and therefore can't verify?

    You know about google translate, I assume? Anyway… -- Me: Respond to the following hacker news comment, give an answer in the style of Shakespeare: <I copy pasted your comment here> It: Hark! Thy words ring hollow as the empty air, Forsooth, to claim we're not but mere reaction, Is to ignore the science everywhere, And spout ignorance without true traction. Oft have philosophers and scientists sought, To fathom consciousness and all its might, A mystery still, with answers not yet wrought, But progress made through study and insight. And why must language be a barrier, To truth and knowledge we can all attain? By learning, we can all become carrier, Of wisdom, and our horizons expand again. Thus, I implore thee, don't dismiss with disdain, The knowledge that awaits in languages not plain. -- (HN messes up the formatting a bit; it was 4-4-2 lines in each group) I'm basically on board with what it says here. Consciousness may be a mystery, but everything we see points to substance monism, not Cartesian dualism. I take caffeine, a chemical, one thing happens to my mental experiences; alcohol, another chemical, a different thing; if I were to take THC or LSD or whatever, they too would have predictable effects on my mental state.

      > You know about google translate, I assume? You cannot be seriously suggesting that the quality of AI generated text be evaluated through the broken telephone of Google translate. That's absurd. > Forsooth, to claim we're not but mere reaction, aaand it already fucked up by the second verse. My comment clearly states that we are not mere reaction, yet this "AI" seems to think I claimed the exact opposite. You're proving my point, it's just guessing what word fits where, not understanding anything whatsoever and producing garbage as a result, that only seems intelligible to gullible fools. > if I were to take THC or LSD or whatever, they too would have predictable effects on my mental state. I don't think I've ever heard anyone describe the effects of LSD as "predictable". I'm guessing you've never actually taken it and are talking out of your ass.
